Glendale is a village in the town of Burrillville, Rhode Island, United States.

The history of the village of Glendale is an early one. In 1785, Arnold Smith purchased land along the Branch River from Jirah Ballou. The water privilege for the mill was given in 1785 for the purpose of supplying water to run a saw mill, corn mill, and other water works. Smith built a sawmill and then a grist mill on the site. In 1794 he bought an additional 22 acres of land from William Inman. In 1841, Anthony Steere purchased the mill and converted it to a cotton mill. Destroyed by fire in 1850 it was rebuilt as a stone mill. In 1853, it became a woolen mill under another owner and in 1873 was known as the Glendale Woolen Company.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing U.S. Post Office waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the post office in the background if that is possible.

A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.

If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
